We have the penultimate episodes of the year for "Heroes" and "Lost", both of which I am extremely excited for.
We also have the series finales for "Gilmore Girls"(May 15 The CW 7) and "King Of Queens"(Hour long-May 14 CBS 8).
Plus the season finales for "How I Met Your Mother"(May 14 CBS 7), "Two and a Half Men"(May 14 CBS 7:30), "Everybody Hates Chris"(May 14 The CW 7), "Bones"(May 16 Fox 7), "The Office"(Hour long-May 17 NBC 7), "Scrubs"(Hour long-May 17 NBC 8), "Smallville"(May 17 The CW 7), "Supernatural"(May 17 The CW 8) and "ER"(May 17 NBC 9).
And the final 3, if you haven't been following its Blake, Melinda and Jordin, each sing 3 songs on "American Idol"(Fox Tuesday 7).
But with all of the exciting things happening on TV, there is also the potential for the week to be heartbreaking. This week is the networks upfronts, which is when they announce the schedules for next fall. This is when we find out what shows are coming back and sadly which have been canceled. Upfronts also allow me to have an entire summer to obsess over the schedule (I will have multiple handy viewing guides ready for Fall 2007) and figure out what scheduling conflicts are going to cause me pain at the '08 upfronts.
So far there is reason to celebrate, it is rumored that NBC will be renewing "Friday Night Lights" though it won't be official until the official announcement Monday. On Wednesday, CBS will supposedly bring back "How I Met Your Mother" for a third season. And in a move that I am extremely surprised by, and excited about, ABC may announce on Tuesday that they are bringing back "The Knights of Prosperity".
Some other potential good news is it appears "Veronica Mars" may return, and even if NBC drops "Scrubs" ABC would pick it up.
So much can happen in just one week, cross your fingers, say a prayer, sacrifice a chicken, whatever it takes to keep our favorite shows on TV.
